Readers Write: Silence is not an option

Trump is the issue, just as Nixon was the issue. Trump has a complete lack of respect for those fundamental rules and institutions on which our government is based, including the judiciary, the electoral system, the intelligence agencies, government workers, the Federal Reserve and journalists.

His utter disregard for the truth from the size of his inauguration to the bugging of Trump Towers by President Obama undermines the very idea of objective truth.

Which is worse, that he is dishonest intentionally or that he cannot tell the difference?

He is being investigated by both the House and Senate for colluding with a foreign government to influence his own election — an election he lost by 3 million votes.

It is the shared responsibility of each of us to help the United States achieve its goals of liberty and equality in our constitution and to remove from office any elected official who violates the constitution. (See www.latimes.com/projects/la-ed-our-dishonest-president/)
